thanks for the advice! unfortunately nothing seems to work. i tried installing origin again but it won't recognize anything aside from the base game, I'm unable to get to any of my sims 3 packs or worlds, it shows up empty in the launcher and if i try to "install packs" from the launcher it just takes me to the origin sims 3 page. Looks like they really screwed up since a LOT of people are unable to play sims 3 now, I hope they can fix it asap. I've tried everything under the moon for the last few weeks to make my sims 3 launch but no luck. and I'm not playing ts4 lol
@shurumushurumu I was hoping you wouldn't be affected by the issue of Origin not showing the list of packs, which is less common than the various EA App issues. But there's no fix for the Origin issue at this point, so it's worth trying the EA App again and seeing if you can get around at least some of the problems. Please clear the cache data for both the EA App and Origin:

Then install the App and let me know whether your packs install now (if they're not already downloaded). And try the workaround for the store content: it does seem to help most people. But it would be best to only install a few items when testing, just to keep things simple.
